Their relationship is all the more miraculous, given that they met and fell in love at a cancer support group. THE FAULT IN OUR STARS, based upon the number-one bestselling novel by John Green, explores the funny, thrilling and tragic business of being alive and in love.


The movie’s main characters are:
  • Hazel Grace (Shailene Woodley) -  A sixteen year-old cancer patient who meets and falls in love with a boy called Augustus (Ansel Elgort) at her support group. Hazel must take an oxygen tank with her wherever she goes, having been diagnosed with Stage 4 thyroid cancer at the age of thirteen.
  • Augustus (Ansel Elgort) - An ex-basketball player who lost his right leg to bone cancer (Osteosarcoma). He is the best friend of Isaac and later Hazel's boyfriend and only love. Augustus knew Isaac before the Support Group, the single and sole reason he was there was because he wanted to support Isaac, before undergoing surgery and going blind.
